Just started an FAQ: github.com/svanschu/mod_sw_kbirthday_J16

Feel free to add questions or aks here …

override of language does not work or is not configured correctly as

He tells you that the language files don't exist. You need the es-ES files inside your normal Joomla site, so the error goes away.

opentranslators.transifex.com/projects/p.../es_ES/?project=2719

The files are not included, because they are not complete ...

Edit: FAQ updated

I made the unofficial Spanish language. Not only is it a translation, is interpretation, translation and explanation of each option.

Installing from the extension manager, Joomla 1.6+

A small suggestion for improvement :
Place a variable in the backend, so it can be used in the congrats string:
SW_KBIRTHDAY_MESSAGE="Dykkerklubben Dannebroge ønsker alt det bedste til %s."
On my site we've changed the message of course from the standard danish string, but it's actually only "Dykkerklubben Dannebroge" that needs to be changed to whatever for other sites, so if the string said:
SW_KBIRTHDAY_MESSAGE="%s ønsker alt det bedste til %s."
And the %s pr. default was set to the sitename, and then shown in the birthday module config, very few people would need to go and change it in the language files I think?

I thought about that and it was also in the Issue tracker, but as Joomla 2.5 is the version sites should use I don't wanted to implement, because Joomla now has language override possibility. So I think it's better to do this through this function …
